Chesapeake Bay Bill Committee Report

The environmental status and health of the Chesapeake Bay has long been a source of concern for many in our region. There is currently a bill in Congress that attempts to address these issues, by directing OMB and EPA to undertake budgeting and planning for restoration and management.

The bill was approved by the House Committee on Natural Resources over the summer; the House Committee report (PDF) on the bill has just been added to GPO's online catalog. Follow the link to learn more about the bill's provisions, background, and legislative history to date.
